There’s that one game you used to love, made by that one developer who seems to be stuck making the same game over and over again, releasing iteration upon iteration of the same thing. No I’m not talking about Street Fighter again, but rather Worms. It seems as though Team 17 has been making the same game for the better part of two decades. They’re still at it, this time remastering one of the very best games featuring those angsty, armed annelids: Worms World Party.
The last of the classic 2D games before 3D worms came and ruined everything, Worms World Party showed Team 17 at its very best, with the most varied weapons, levels, silly sound bites and extraneous features. And it’s coming back…next month. Worms World Party Remastered will feature remastered graphics, enhanced sound effects, controller support and enhanced Steam features, including cloud saves, leaderboards and achievements.
It’s coming to Steam next month, and I’m really left wondering…why? It’s a remaster of a game I don’t think anybody was asking for – but at least it’s of a game old enough to deserve one, I guess. Me? I think it’s time for these little blighters to die.

Ahaah!! Those tags…In full agreement though…I’ll be giving it a skip, my wife might enjoy dipping into this, but I’m not sure about that…

I remember playing Worms with my then best friend when I was like ten. It was the 3D one and I frustrated him so much because I just spammed flood. Then after a while he’d come over and say that Worms was boring. That hurt me because playing that game with him was some of the best memories I had.
I now keep him chained in my basement and we play Worms every night. Mwahahaha…

Team17 don’t exactly have that much going for them at this stage, that is probably why.
I don’t see the point in it though. You can still buy and play Worm World Party on Steam now. And it’s perfectly fine.

When I was younger I had a friend who stayed near the school (I lived only a few meters down the road actually) who had Worms. The first one. Every time after an exam a bunch of us would head over to his house, play a few rounds of worms against each other and then head home our separate ways to go and pretend to study for the next exam.

Do you even read his bio?
“I’m old, grumpy and more than just a little cynical. One day, I found myself in possession of a NES, and a copy of Super Mario Bros 3. It was that game that made me realise that games were more than just toys to idly while away time – they were capable of being masterpieces. I’m here now, looking for more of those masterpieces. I am also the emperor of the backend”

I’ve lived in Cape Town now for 5,5 years and I have been to Newlands 3 times. The first time very drunk, loved it. The second time sober, the supporters are bad. The third time I went to see the Boks, that is also the only way you will get me to go to Newlands again. Te Bulls fans are frenetic and crazy but at least they support their local team even when they are shit.. Not here in Cape Town…

My friend and I used to have a book on Worms where we would draw pictures and write stories about them. I swear I wasn’t an outcast!!! At least, nobody told me I was. Come to think of it, nobody spoke to me…
OH CRAP! I was an outcast! Screw you Worms…
